Hello, i am making a custom map for my clan, the 12thIR, and i saved to the proper spot and stuff, and I opened up pr_edit in bf2editor. I also made a shortcut to run pr_edit so i could try my map, but when loading my map, as soon as the "Squad assignment" window pops up, my game crashes. Any tips?
thanks

Truth is it could be a number of things. Try your Combat areas. Delete them, or check your kit selections you have in your init.con file. Check your ticket ratios also in the init.con

Run PR in window mode, you'll most likely get an error.

Open up your shortcut to PR and change "+fullscreen 1" to "+fullscreen 0". If you can't find it in your shortcut, add "+fullscreen 0" to it. Then start PR again and run your map.

Then if you still don't know what's wrong, post back here .

Its the OLD CTD at loading complete....... Some times editor just screws it all over. Just re-do lightmaps and the init and combat area and maybe terrain/texture. See if that fixes it.

put your map into the pr\levels folder and run it on pr rather than pr_edit. Make sure you have your init.con set up for pr etc etc. if you are still having problems right down in detail what you've done so far in order to get the map working so I can check to see if you've done the essentials, such as assigning a low detail type and a low detail texture to your textures. Have you ever got it to load in game before?

umm, ya, that may be the problem, i am totally new to mapping, and i didnt set the lightmaps, i dindt the init thing, and i have no clue what a combat area is....

I would suggest you do some of the BF2 editing tutorials. Your missing some of the major steps to getting a level to work. At this point everything you DONT know will make it very hard to help you.

Try this website and link out Creating A Map For Begginers - (very Image Heavy) - Official BF Editor Forums


I know I couldn't wait to get my new map in, but there are some steps you need to learn before asking for very basic (bf2 editing) help. If after that your maps still wont load, come back and ask as it may be something as simple as .con settings.

ok, thank you
